That was really cool. It looked like a guy attempted a standing cartwheel guard pass.

Yeah I good point. So maybe like 5 or so reps past the point of focus. Until it's easy to do that and then 5 more. I do wonder if some of that "do this 10,000" time style talk is brute forcing what could be done better through smarter methods. Like how that 10,000 hour of practice theory was found to be not really true. The best were found to actually practice less than the average, but they practiced intensely when they did work on it and set/measured clear objectives along the way for themselves. It's also been found that imagining doing things is almost as good. Like to the point that people who imagined lifting weights over time became a little stronger than a control that didn't. Big bonus for something like grappling is its zero wear and tear on the body just visualizing what you want to practice.

watching grappling and visualizing yourself doing the details has helped a lot with getting better at little things when i couldnt train for 2 weeks just now.

I always saw the 10 000 reps/hours things as a way to say "You need to practice a lot for a long time to get good" and not as an actual "timeframe". And yeah, visualisation is a great tool for everything in life. In something as technical as grappling there is 0 doubt that it can help people improve greatly. It's crazy how much you can learn watching youtube videos and imagining yourself going through the motions. --- Anyway that whole video was interesting but a bit simplistic. It's not one or the other, you need to use both. Drilling is very important to perfect some small movements in techniques, that doesn't mean you don't have to or can't work on the conceptual part. Mostly, like someone said before, drilling doesn't have to be a mindless endeavor either. Of course if you just go through the motion when you drill it's going to be a waste of time compared to mindful randori. From what I recall of my psychology of learning classes, mindfulness (is that even a word) and the way you approach something you're trying to learn is pretty much the most important part of learning. As with pretty much everything in life the "this is the best way" approach, a mixture of both is usually best. There probably are a lot of gyms/teachers/people that focus too much on drilling, but it's pretty ridiculous to simply say that drilling as a whole is pretty much useless. Which he pretty much says in one of his replies. Also, not drilling anymore when you are one of the best athletes on a quickly evolving sport VS not drilling when you're an average blue belt is not the same thing at all.

my coaches have advised I start watching BJJ and grappling (I've previously tried but can't really get into it despite loving training). they said two people to focus on, as their styles are similar to mine. are Ryan Hall & Caio Terra. so, which fights of theirs should I watch? also, what big competitions are coming up soon that I can follow? cheers.

Are there any in-depth instructionals on the standing arm drag? I'm having a lot of trouble grabbing my opponents hip or far armpit, particularly in no-gi. I often get spun in on and counter-dragged. Maybe there's something commonly missed that I'm also missing?

Ah poo poo, I ordered a rashguard from budovideos but in the wrong size, I contacted them in the ''contact us'' part of the site but I was wondering if they're generally pretty good at modifying mistaken orders? I know i'm probably the first to be dumb enough to order the wrong size on this forum at Budo but I was wondering if someone might have ''a don't worry man'' to give.

I've had to modify orders with them before and they always were good about it. Especially if you caught it before they actually packaged it up and dropped it off for shipment.

Feel like the foot lock attempt there was a little questionable, versus getting on top but then the recovery looked like he forgot it's a submission tournament or something.

I don't think Ryan and Caio's styles are very similar. At the very least (based on training with Ryan) the style you often see from Ryan in tournaments from yester-year is not really the style he preaches/believes in these days. Ryan advocates a very top-heavy pressure based game. The best guy to watch for that would be Rodolfo Vieria. Another good guy that does some interesting stuff is Leandro Lo. If you've never done BJJ or grappling before, you're probably going to miss out on 99% of the stuff though. It's hard to watch and understand what top pressure really is unless you experience it from a high level guy. Ryan weighs around 150 but he feels heavier than most blue belts that weigh 200-250 (no joke).

Metamoris announced a North American challenger league today. Pretty stoked for this. Weight classes run from 155 on up to unlimited for men, and just unlimited for women. Twenty-four qualifiers with 16 entrants per bracket, followed up by eight regionals.

Our online registration system is built to work in real time and works on a first come first serve basis." This has the potential to be the dumbest system ever. I hope the qualifiers are filled with newbs that have less than 6 months worth of grappling experience.... but can refresh a webpage like a champ.

I was initially worried about that too but I think the $120 entry fee kept people more or less honest. Its definitely got issues but I'm just glad to see more high level no-gi stuff going on.

I doubt that the fee will have much impact in markets such as DC or NYC; the rate is only moderately higher than the ibjjf rates to be honest. I guess the best news for those competing is that there will be so few competitors that they won't have to sit around all day waiting for their name/bracket to be called

Just recieved the sambo leglocks for no gi grappling dvd. I went through the first volume just to see what he covers and it seemed very very solid. One thing i'm not really sure about is he says that reaping the knee in no-gi is alright but I can't find concurring with that in the IBJJF rulebook, it actually seems to say it's actually illegal no matter how advanced you're competing at. Can anyone confirm? Deny?

The rule is that if you put your opponents leg into the reaping position on purpose you get DQed and not them.

Can anyone give me a time-frame on returning to train after a pulled hamstring? I was still trialing gyms but took a break due to a soccer injury. It wasn't a bad pull (no bruising) but I want to play it safe.

My favorite part about competing in pans or worlds is flying out to Long Beach and having one of the following occur: 1) a brazilian self-reap their leg, scream and flail, and win by DQ against me 2) watch as the brazilian ref gives my brazilian opponent a million advantages for doing literally nothing while counting to 20 before awarding me any points for passes/sweeps.

My memory's foggy on this one, but wasn't there a competition where they decreed a certain crank legal if used as a pass but not as a submission, so then whenever someone would use it to pass the other guy would tap real quick and win by DQ?

Happened to Mr Jeff Monson against some guy. Couldn't use a can opener to sub but were allowed to use it to pass (wth?) and when he used it to open other guy's guard he just tapped instantly and celebrated a hard earned victory.

That was Monson vs Pe De Pano, and the best part of that was that they'd already agreed to split the prize money afterwards so there was absolutely nothing on the line. PDP did it for pure love of poor sportsmanship.
